Before I call on Senator O'Reilly to reply, I formally welcome Congressman Eric Swalwell who is a member of the 14th or 15th, I cannot remember, District in California. I know that there has been a bit of re-districting in his area. Congressman Swalwell is very welcome. I met him in Dublin, California, which is twinned with Bray in Wicklow and he is a very good friend of Ireland. He is here with the Leas-Chathaoirleach and he is co-chair of the Democratic Steering and Policy Committee. The Congressman is very welcome, I thank him for being here, he is a great friend of Ireland and we look forward to working even more closely with him. I ask him to enjoy his visit to Leinster House. He is in good company with the Leas-Chathaoirleach. Céad míle fáilte roimhe.
